Book excerpt: How much life has changed the place that is referred to as “My Piseco”. The place he knew as a kid through those years growing up that we all go through, where life just happened to begin in a small upstate New York town in the least populated county of Hamilton in the heart of the Adirondacks. On that dead end road where so many other kids did the same. Then to be led away from “My Piseco” as an adult and responsibilities that took him to various construction projects that were farther and farther away from this great place, but finally returning and then getting involved with various groups in the town and yes, even the town politics. Time flies by and the town goes through the motions of being “My Piseco,” but the change has happened to this hometown like so many others throughout the Adirondacks and this great nation. Gone was the self-reliant feeling of those days from the 1940s through the 1960s that saw our towns and communities grow up.

Book excerpt: Born with a number of birth defects known as VATER Syndrome, Anna Loizeaux’s chances for survival were uncertain. Each day was a gift and each moment was precious. Much of her brief life was spent in hospital nurseries and operating rooms, where medical technology and human intervention mustered all their resources to give her the chance for life that nature had not. In the end, they couldn’t. Anna lived only a few precious, wonderful months, and when she died she shattered the lives of her parents. Where is the design to the death of a child? What is left to hold on to? William Loizeaux began to write a journal. Begun out of the agony of grief and the determination to forget nothing, Anna: A Daughter's Life becomes an affirmation: there is no life without a marker. In the terrible beauty and uncompromising honesty of her father's prose, Anna has her marker. This stunningly beautiful record of a father’s grief begun out of isolation and helpless rage, becomes an act of celebration. In it, he finds, and offers to us, the courage and spirit that asked so much from so brief a life. Here is an unforgettable portrait of an unforgettable child that reaches out to us all

Download or read book Adirondack written by Edward Kanze and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probes deeply into Adirondack Mountain lives, both human and otherwise, bringing the area to vivid and colorful life. Born just north of New York City, Edward Kanze traveled as far as the wilds of Australia and New Zealand, working as a naturalist, park ranger, and nature writer, before finally settling in New Yorks Adirondacks for the riskiest of all lifes adventures: marriage and children. Adirondack tells the story of how he and his wife, Debbie, bought a tumbledown house, rescued it from ruin, started a family, and planted themselves deep in Adirondack soil. Along the way, he brings the unique history of this area to life by sharing stories of his ancestors, who have lived there for generations, and by offering captivating descriptions of the world around him. A keen observer, Kanze will charm readers with his tales of bears, birds, and fluorescent mice. Beautifully written and utterly engagingI savored every incident, every well-wrought sentence. Philip G. Terrie, author of Contested Terrain, Second Edition: A New History of Nature and People in the Adirondacks Adirondack is an absolute delight. If we were all living like the Kanzes, connected to our extended families, the fellow beings we share the biosphere with, the world would be a much healthier and better place. Alex Shoumatoff, contributing editor, Vanity Fair This is a heartfelt and meticulously researched journal of a man returning to and immersing himself in his home in the Adirondack Park. Connecting with history, natural history, and a community of people, Kanze places the conflicting nature philosophies of John Muir and John Burroughs into context in a relevant and poignant way. Bernd Heinrich, author of The Homing Instinct: Meaning and Mystery in Animal Migration The book reads almost like a conversation with a friend, a good-hearted, compassionate, maybe a little old-fashioned, wise, and wonderful friend.
